inches deeper, the soil was moist. The night before
digging the soil, the sprinklers were on. The soil
contained small rocks and pieces of grass. Soil was found in Illinois in my backyard.
Naming NotesI named my phage "Kurowski" because that is my last name. I named it after myself because this is my first time being involved in science so I wanted it to be memorable.
